Number One Dad

To
make the card, I used a tent fold base and layered it with Juniper card
(from Close to my Heart) then one of the papers from the Jackson
Collection (now retired).

The base for the tag and the
stars was cut from Cocoa cardstock and the top layer of the tag and the
stars were cut from Colonial White cardstock. I used Juniper again for
the rectangles on which I placed the Cocoa letters.

It is hard to see in this photo but I have used foam dots for the stars so they stand away from the tag.

A wonderfully easy card to make using another great cutting file from PCW!

Favourite Tips

If you need a brad of a particular colour and don't have one, check to see if you have some embossing powder of the colour you want . Rub embossing ink on the top of the brad, then dip it into the embossing powder then heat set it. Use tweezers or a clip peg to hold the brad while you heat it.

When you are stitching on cards, make sure you are not sewing over the top of DS tape! The needle gets gummed up and won't lock the threads underneath.

Use zip lock plastic envelopes for smaller pieces of card offcuts that accumulate when making cards. Have one envelope per colour and periodically go through and trim up so they are ready for use on another card.
